Abstract:
Dissolved carbon dioxide (dCO2) stripping from a model solution containing sake flavor by feeding gaseous nitrogen (N2) using a microbubble (MB) generator was investigated. The effect of dCO2 stripping by N2MB increased significantly with increasing flow rate of gaseous N2 from 100 to 200 mL/min. dCO2 stripping from 3,000 mL of the model solution was achieved by feeding N2MB at a flow rate of 200 mL/min for 4 min. Volatile components from model solution containing sake flavor were hardly reduced even after feeding N2MB at a flow rate of 200 mL/min for 15 min by cooling to below 10 °C. On the other hand, non-microbubbled gaseous N2 at a flow rate of 200 mL/min was not very effective in stripping dCO2. Therefore, the use of N2MB with cooling to below 10 °C was effective in stripping dCO2 while maintaining the volatile components in model solution containing sake flavor.

Vapor Pressure Lowering
Dissolving a nonvolatile substance in volatile liquid results in a lowering of the liquid’s vapor pressure. This phenomenon can be explained by considering the effect of added solute molecules on the liquid's vaporization and condensation processes. To vaporize, solvent molecules must be present at the surface of the solution....
